Yue Yao is very curious about who this guest is and why she is targeting Leng Mansion at this time. Even if she doesn’t know much about business, she should know that this is the first time for this person to deal with their tea plantation. No one would be so impulsive without having been to a tea plantation.
A deposit was placed. No one would place a deposit on all the tea without knowing the tea production. Therefore, this person must have a purpose.
The one who was most likely to take action was the young master of the Leng family. But where was he? The person who acted that night did not succeed, but there was a lot of blood stains on the bed. The strange thing was that her people were not there at all.
There's no time to take action. Is there another wave of people who want A Lan's life?
If A-Lan was really injured, judging from the pool of blood, it is very likely that A-Lan is no longer alive.
But besides him, who would be harmful to the Leng family?
One of his subordinates, Uncle Ren, had been buried alive, and the other one was also locked in a dark room. However, she sent someone to go to the place where that person told him. There was no one in the small courtyard, and A Lan's mother had no idea.
I don't live there. And the yard is very messy, with no trace of anyone living there.
She felt that the man had lied to her, so she was kept in a dark room.
Of course she knew that the guest who came today would not be A-Lan. She came here in person today to test whether the guest behind her was actually A-Lan.
Just as he was thinking about it, the shopkeeper came in and said, "Madam, sir, the guest has arrived."
"Well, please invite the guests to the inner hall." Yueyao said.
It stands to reason that when a guest comes to the tea house, he should invite him to the tea room to discuss business. But today was a little special, so Yueyao asked the shopkeeper to invite the guest to the inner hall.
"Yes." After the shopkeeper responded, he personally brought the guest in.
The shopkeeper invited the guests in and said, "Madam, sir, Boss Ji is here."
Yueyao was curious about this last name and looked up at the man in front of her. This boss... didn't look like a businessman at all. He looked like a young prince in his early twenties. There was no expression on his face.
He looked a little cooler, and his every move was full of nobility. Yueyao glanced at A-Lan's father and felt that the man in front of her looked somewhat similar to someone from the Leng family.
Could it be that Ah Lan has disguised herself?
"This is Boss Ji, Boss Ji, and this is my wife." A Lan's father introduced.
"It turns out that this is Boss Leng's wife. She is so anxious to come to me because the goods are ready?" Boss Ji said.
Alan's father opened his mouth with a smile and said: "Boss Ji, it's like this, the tea garden..."
As a result, before he could finish his words, Yue Yao snatched him over and said, "Boss Ji, sit down first, let's talk slowly."
Boss Ji sat down, and Yueyao poured him a cup of tea herself. Ji Limo nodded and took a sip, and then said: "Listen to Boss Leng, is there anything going on in the tea garden?"
"Boss Ji, something happened in the tea garden. I wonder if you are in a hurry to get the goods?" Yue Yao said.
"Madam, if Ji was not in a hurry to get the goods, he would not have paid such a large deposit. At that time, Boss Leng also said that manpower was needed when picking tea, so I paid more deposit in the hope that Boss Leng could find more.
I need some people to help pick tea. Is it because there are not enough people in the tea garden?" Boss Ji asked puzzledly.
A-Lan's father wanted to open his mouth to speak, Yueyao glanced at A-Lan's father, and A-Lan's father quickly shut his mouth.
Yue Yao said with a smile: "Boss Ji, it's not that the tea garden is short of manpower, it's that all the tea in the tea garden has been stolen. So, we can't hand it over now. We were able to pick tea yesterday, but it turned out
The people guarding the tea garden found that it was all harvested. What I mean is, if you can extend it for a few days, the other part can be picked. But if you are too anxious, we can only compensate you with money."
"How could this happen? But I'm really in a hurry to get this batch of goods, otherwise I wouldn't have paid such a large deposit." Boss Ji said.
"Then we have to compensate Boss Ji. We don't want to lose money, but there is really no other way." Yue Yao said.
"But it was Boss Leng who promised me that there would be no problem. Now where should I go to find the next tea garden? The tea leaves have already been harvested at this time, and they must all be sold out. What's the use of giving me money now?
, I don’t need to do any business after I go back." Ji Limo said slowly.
His tone was not irritable at all, and he spoke in an unhurried manner. But after listening to it, it still made people a little anxious.
"Boss Ji, why don't you go to the tea garden with us?" Yueyao asked.
"Now that Madam has said it, Ji naturally believes it. You are not willing to do a loss-making business for no reason. However, I really need those goods before I come to do business. Otherwise, I would not be in a hurry to place a deposit.
"Boss Ji said anxiously.
"But no matter how anxious we are about the tea in the tea garden, now is not the time to pick tea." Yueyao said.
"There is really no other way, so we can only pay the money." Boss Ji said helplessly.
Yueyao nodded, asked the shopkeeper to settle the account, paid Boss Ji a sum of money, and left the teahouse.
When A-Lan's father saw Boss Ji leaving, he let out a long sigh of relief. He said to Yueyao, "Thankfully you are here, otherwise Boss Ji wouldn't be so easy to get rid of."
"Okay, don't be so careless in the future." Yue Yao gently advised.
Yueyao didn't care, because she knew that Boss Ji was not easy to see. When she left, she had already arranged for someone to follow Boss Ji.
She really wanted to know the origin of Boss Ji and see what the relationship between Boss Ji and A-Lan was.
"Yue Yao, I didn't expect that the first time I did business, I would mess it up." A Lan's father said helplessly.
"I don't blame you for this. Most likely there is something wrong with Boss Ji." Yueyao comforted him.
"Since Boss Ji has a problem, why do we have to pay him money?" A Lan's father asked doubtfully.
"Because I can't arouse his suspicion, I will happily compensate him. You don't need to worry about this matter. Let's go to the tea garden first." Yueyao said.
A-Lan's father nodded, and the two of them left the tea plantation and got on the carriage. It took nearly an hour before they arrived at the tea plantation.
The tea garden was very quiet. When the servants guarding the village saw the master and his wife, they hurried out to greet them and said: "Master, madam."
"I heard something happened in the tea garden. Please take us in and have a look." Yueyao said.
"Yes, madam." The servant responded and led them towards the garden.
After arriving at the tea garden, as Alan's father said, all the buds on it had been picked.
"Yao'er, you saw it, it was really picked overnight." A Lan's father said.
Yue Yao could naturally see it clearly. The people who came in to pick tea moved neatly and neatly, and they arrived at the tea garden in the middle of the night to pick tea. This was not something ordinary tea pickers could do. There could not be just one or two people in such a large tea garden.
Come in to pick tea. There are at least forty or fifty people who come in. With so many people coming in, you can't even notice a sound. Not only do they know martial arts, but ordinary people may not be their opponents.
So, who came in to cause trouble, and who is that Boss Ji? What kind of feud do they have with the Leng family, and are they planning to plot against them at this time?
This matter is a bit strange. When A-Lan took over the business before, there was never any problem. But A-Lan's father had just taken over the business, and there was such a big problem. It's hard not to suspect that Boss Ji and A-Lan teamed up to plot against them.
.
"Apart from the tea garden, other businesses should be fine, right?" Yueyao asked.
"I have always been cautious in the antique business and have never participated in it. I only think that the tea plantation business is relatively simple, and this is the only one I have personally taken over." A-Lan's father said.
"Don't get involved in the antique business, something is wrong," Yue Yao said.
"Could something happen to the antique business?" Alan's father asked.
"I'm a little worried. What happened at this tea house happened suddenly. How can there be such a coincidence in this world? Just after taking over the business here, all the tea leaves there were stolen?" Yue Yao said.
"But the Leng family never has any grudges with others, so why would someone plot against the Leng family?" A-Lan's father asked in confusion.
"Have you forgotten Ah Lan?" Yueyao said.
"A-Lan? He, hasn't he already..." A-Lan's father did not finish his words.
"The bed in his room is indeed full of blood, but this does not mean that he is no longer here. I thought about bringing the lady back, but unfortunately A-Lan's subordinates lied to me. There was no one in the yard, and the yard was empty.
No one has lived here for a long time." Yueyao said.
"Yue Yao is kind-hearted. If she were not the clan leader, I would have divorced her long ago. You are the real wife." A Lan's father said.
Yueyao wanted to tell A-Lan's father that A-Lan was probably not dead, and that he might have teamed up with that boss Ji to scheme against the Leng family. However, A-Lan's father only thought of these romantic affairs.
"Master, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that A-Lan might have teamed up with Boss Ji to plot against us." Yueyao couldn't bear it anymore and spoke.
Originally, she planned to let A-Lan's father speak out on his own, but she didn't expect that A-Lan's father didn't have this intention at all.
"What? A-Lan is partnering with Boss Ji? This... is unlikely. When A-Lan took over the business, because it was handed over to him by the old man, he was very concerned about it. How could he destroy it just for this?
Where is your hard work?" Alan's father asked.
"Now that we have taken back the business, do you think he will be willing to do so? If A-Lan is still alive, he will definitely find a way to get the business back," Yueyao said.
"With so much blood shed, can A-Lan still be alive?" A-Lan's father murmured to himself.
"Master, I'm just guessing. If you think about it carefully, if there wasn't a conspiracy that had been planned in advance, how could all the tea be harvested overnight? Why is it that all the other teas are still there, but only this one has been harvested?
Not a single bud left?" Yueyao said.
In fact, this is not Yueyao's exaggeration. The tea garden is not small alone. On weekdays, more than a dozen people picking tea are not enough. Those who come to pick tea in the middle of the night must distinguish the tea in the tea garden, and there will be no one left.
It was simply amazing. This was not something that ordinary people could do. At first, she just thought that the tea pickers knew martial arts, but now she could confirm that these people not only knew martial arts, but also had a very deep understanding of tea.
